I've noticed that. I imagine the manufacturers figure that with bluetooth, wi-fi, and EVDO (or whatever), people won't miss an IR connection.
But, it sucks for those of us who use the devices as remote controls. Personally, I'd rather have IR than FM any day. I can stream my FM stations, but you can't fake IR.
(Losing functionality as devices "improve" drives me nuts. I miss wi-fi ActiveSync, "draw" function in Pocket Word, and cursive transcription in "draw" in both Notes and Word.)
